Do You Have One of These?

Pearl n. 1. a precious jewel 2. a girl's name 3. the 5th cupcake in my batch 4. a small girl living in my house who can get into a handful of trouble in a moment's time.
A.K.A. Pearly, Pearl the Girl, Kitty, No-Pearl-No, Pearl-zilla, Pearlee Whirless
Characteristics: Teddy Bear, Dancing Queen, Nothing is too far for her reach, VERY happy, BUSY
Age: 1 year, 6 months
What Pearl is ALWAYS doing:

Rearranging, opening and spilling food in the kitchen
.
Stealing her baby brother's binkys--Her's are Pink, his are blue.
She KNOWS this.

Sneaking a quiet moment in Mommy's wallet and bag.
Grabbing and running away with whatever her big sis happens to be working on.
This time it was glitter, with peanut butter and jelly still on her face.
Oh yeah, and a sticker too.

Notoriously getting out of her high chair while eating.
Only when Daddy is not home.

Been known to consume and dump out on kitchen floor cat food on many occasions hence came the nickname Kitty.

And my parents tell me, she's just like I was.

Hi Wendy!

I haven't got any myself, but I've got a nephew on the way (any day now), and I can't WAIT to see what kind of shennanigans he's going to get into!

Great post! ;-)

PS~ you should definitely learn to knit! I haven't reached the "addictive" stage yet ... then again my first project was in 2005 ... I needed a 3 year break apparently. Haha!

Take care,
Stormy

She's adorable! My kids always love the wallet too...and the toilet paper, and the printer, and anything else we didn't buy in a toy store! Go figure...

Very cute post!

I have two of those! Kyle and Bella!! LOL!! They are ALWAYS getting into something..and quicker than I can clean up the last mess!
She is absolutely adorable! What a precious treasure! Love how she uses the little ones pacifier. Bella never cared for the binky....but now that Cali uses one we have to watch where we leave them because she puts them in her mouth!! Orneriness....pure orneriness!
